Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

At the Moulin Rouge, The Dance - Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

At the Moulin Rouge, The Dance by Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec

Toulouse-Lautrec's use of red/green complimentary pallette is terribly inspiring to me, the way he makes the two colors live so harmoniously together. His use of transparency in painting is also very cool. The shadows of dancers in the middle-left and the woman's black dress on the right and the way they are painted almost transparently is amazing.
